However, I was able to install to a USB jump drive and boot from it. It booted and everything worked well, except Firefox ESR 52 is horrible. I haven't tried updating to Sid yet.

Hi Casey,

I am not sure if I understand the problem correctly. Did the installer (partman) see the partitions on your SSD? Did you remove the SSD for installing Debian?
